You know who doesn’t give a frick about what the rest of the world thinks about our President? Me

Turns out, when you finally put your foot down and don’t allow other countries to walk all over you, don’t go on an apology tour, and start acting like the adult of the world, everybody gets pissy.

frick em.

Is this supposed to shocking? Of course other countries don't like an America First president.

Let’s say from an objective perspective that Trump became not only the greatest President in American history, but he became the greatest person in human history. He cures cancer, ends world hunger, 0% unemployment, and turned around global warming.

Guess what? His polling results from an international perspective would be the same. Trump represents everything people hate about America. His boorishness, bragging about being richer and better than everyone, no filter to speak of, and very exploitive. Barrack Obama on the other hand shat all over American exceptionalism and deliberately drug our nation’s reputation through the mud in favor of globalism. Of course they like him more. No one likes someone who is objectively better than them and shames them.

I also thought that Auburn should have kept Chizik and LSU should keep Coach O.

It’s not a surprise. Obama gave all of our money and power away to them and Trump is trying to take it back .

You mean people who know Trump through the media and view him as the consummate rich, arrogant American view him less favorably than America’s first black President who was coddled by the same information sources? Truly shocking and completely irrelevant to me as a voting American.

1) Continued the war in Afghanistan? Check.

2) Invaded Libya without Congressional authorization? Check.

3) Attempted to invade Syria? Check.

4) Conducted drone bombings in 7 predominantly Muslim countries? Check.

5) Claimed the authority to kill American citizens without charge or trial and fought to keep the kill list secret? Check.

6) Killed 16-year old American citizen Abdulrahman Al-Awlaki in a targeted drone strike in Yemen? Check.

7) Expanded the NSA spying programs even beyond the scope of the Bush administration? Check.

8) Arrested more whistleblowers than every other administration combined? Check.

9) Wiretapped and spied on reporters such as James Rosen? Check.

10) Bailed out Wall Street and fail to prosecute them for their role in the 2008 financial collapse? Check.

11) Accept 6-figure payments from those same Wall Street institutions after you leave office? Check.

Barack Obama being a progressive humanitarian is perhaps the biggest sham in world history. The guy's policy achievements outlined above are more neocon than George W. Bush. It's embarrassing to see people fawn over his record, as if it's something progressives should be proud of.

Do the same test but instead of Obama Trump use Obama and Robert Downey Jr.

The results will be equally as useful.

My SiL is a German national, and she has said this, just about verbatim. She loves Trump, largely because she has seen what the Gospel of Diversity has done to her home country, and doesn't want it here. But yeah, she has talked about how his biggest-dick-in-the-room attitude is distinctly American.

I don't give a shite what other countries think about America or it's leader. I give a shite what America's leader thinks about America.

Is this like the same polls that gave Hillary a 95% chance of winning?

You know, Trump is obnoxious but lately I am trying to think of anybody he has ever "gone after" who wasn't either a colossal a-hole or an enormous bitch and I cannot think of anybody.

I probably wouldn't like him if he was just him but he fights back against the assholes who are so used to bullying anybody who gets in their way that I really do admire him.

That is why they are terminally butthurt - how dare someone challenge them!

Leftists cannot be reasoned with. They must be defeated and they do not warrant any consideration.

Let me make this simple.
Pretend that instead of nations, we’re talking about sec football teams, and instead of the nations leaders we’re talking about head coaches. If a team is bad in football, other team’s fan bases generally do not have a negative view of that particular team’s head coach because the team poses no threat to challenge any other team in any way. Thus the status quo will never change. However, if a team is good in football, other team’s fan bases generally will have a negative view of that particular team’s head coach because that team does pose a threat to challenge every other team. Thus there is now a legitimate threat to the status quo.
No one outside of Alabama likes Saban, and that should help explain what I just laid out.

Well Obama was a better president for the rest of the world than America!

If I was Un-American, I would miss him too!

Yep

Hussein “wait til MY election is over” Obama and Hillary were easily coerced so other countries hierarchy loved them

Trump can’t be bullied by these same countries.

Hitler was one of the most admired men in the world prior to WWII. Think he was even man of the year on some magazine here in U.S....look it up.

He spread the "we're not exceptional voice" around the world so it "aroused" their dislike of America, despite everyone of them wishing they were here with the rest of us Trumpkins.
